Compactor plate No name K-BF120 with mat — KALTMANN COMPACTOR K-BF120 + MAT

KALTMANN COMPACTOR K-BF120 + MAT is a plate compactor designed for soil and asphalt compaction, supplied with a protective mat to reduce surface damage. The unit applies concentrated vibration force through a flat base plate to increase ground density and improve bearing capacity. The supplied mat protects sensitive paving and finished surfaces during operation, making the compactor suitable for use on asphalt, paving stones and compactable soils.

Advantages

The compactor combines a flat vibrating plate with a protective mat to allow work on both robust and delicate surfaces. The design concentrates vibration energy into the plate base for effective compaction of soil and asphalt layers. The included mat reduces scratching and marking on finished pavement while maintaining compaction performance. The product is supplied as a ready-to-use unit with mat, facilitating immediate use on-site.

Suitable for

• Compacting subbase and base layers in small to medium construction projects
• Asphalt patching and repair work on roads and driveways
• Landscaping tasks such as preparing areas for paving stones or patios
• Work on sensitive or finished paving where surface protection is required

Key specifications

• Type: plate compactor with protective mat
• Application: soil and asphalt compaction
• Included accessory: protective mat for finished surfaces
• Base: flat vibrating plate designed to concentrate vibration force

How to use

Position the compactor on the area to be compacted and start the unit following the manufacturer's operating instructions. For paving or finished surfaces, place the protective mat between the plate and the surface to reduce abrasions and marks. Move the compactor slowly and evenly across the work area, making overlapping passes until the required density is achieved. For asphalt repairs, allow initial cooling as recommended for the asphalt mix before compacting to avoid sticking.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, check fuel and oil levels before operation, and inspect the mat for damage prior to use. Avoid prolonged compaction on highly flexible surfaces without mat protection, and follow local guidelines for compaction passes and layer thickness to achieve consistent results.
